RE: Why aren’t the Whales Voting? - Steem Smart Podcast Ep. 9c
I have had a thought for awhile. I believe I even posted it on there in it's first voicing and unformed.
My thought was along the lines of things humans can do well, that maybe bots can't do as well.
25% Curation reward granted to the author uncompetitively. The rest going in curation reward to comments. The author can just eas easily compete for these by defending their stance, supporting supportive comments etc.
I think it would increase interaction, and for new people (we need readers) it allows and encourages them to read and comment with something pertinant to the post.
I don't see how splitting it in comments could work because the dilution potential is just too great
Well, there would be specifics to it, same as the timing right now is a game. Every comment wouldn't receive a reward. Let's say it boiled down to the 5 most upvoted comments and their replies.
So you have to play a game, very much the same as you do with curation now with the timer and the whales..... they vote at 20 minutes I will vote at 19 for example. Same thing applies, you decide if you want to comment, and try for one of the best ones, or choose a comment to support... or both.
Absolutely just any old "good post" comment wouldn't be likely to make it to the top 5.
Again, the question I am asking ultimately is what are ways the curation and rewards of the system can be tweaked in a way that benefits human interaction and is not easily mimicked by a bot
Here is an idea :)
Human vs. Bot Curators - Introducing Human Competition into the Equation - Allow Whales to Delegate Curation Power to Dolphins and Minnows
